Diego 😻 This little guy was lucky to survive after presenting to the surgery with several days of vomiting. After investigating, vets Emete and Ralph discovered a linear foreign body - in this case some string that he had been playing with and ingested. It was caught in his mouth, was down through his oesophagus and stomach and was lodged in his small intestine causing it to "bunch up." His intestines were very inflammed and a number of incisions had to be made throughout the bowel to remove the string safely. Within 24 hours of his surgery, Diego was purring, eating and playful. What a little legend.
